IN speaking aboat u sftef zafds. "fhere
vas q pressure biouRht to bear in favor
OF ali extension Of Dehin avenue and IL
was said 10 was the better grade, bat |
think not, as TO 60 that way necessitates
rise OF forty feet above the Pacific
avenue extension. BY the latter route
We turn west at Thirty Anfth Street fer
half faile, chen we join the county
road The pressure In favor OF DeLin
avenue came from the Tacoma Lind
Company think, they wanting us to
90 that way as Il would open up more
streets 10 their benefit"
"HoW about that 500 thai cas- ap-
propfiated fsf the work. Will il dor"
"Oh. no. We will pat in the 800.
but the road must be built and We will
appropriate what Is necessary. There
Is no doubt about that. The citis ms
out that way have ssbseFibed $500 and
l understand that the County Comnis-
sioners' appropriation is TO be guaged
By what We de. Just what that has got
20 do With il can't see. We will make
